Stone upon stone, or a few words about urolithiasis.
Stone upon stone, or a few words about urolithiasis.
In Russia, more than 1 million people are currently registered as suffering from urolithiasis. In total, there are about 3% of patients in the world. The Nizhny Novgorod region is one of the disadvantaged regions for this disease, so the problem is urgent for us. What to do to prevent a “diamond mine” from forming in the kidneys, and what should those who do have the misfortune of “acquainting themselves” with renal colic do? Vera Alekseevna Ladygina, a urologist at the Clinical Diagnostic Center, will talk about this.
Hello, Vera Alekseevna, why do stones form in the kidneys?
There is still no consensus in the medical community on what exactly causes urolithiasis. After all, both kidneys secrete urine. But why then do stones form in one kidney and not in the other? And the composition of the urine passing through both kidneys is the same. Therefore, doctors say that urolithiasis is a disease that is manifested by increased excretion of mineral salts in the urine and the formation of stones in the urinary tract. But how this happens - there are many opinions about this, but there is still no complete and unambiguous answer to this question.
Who is more susceptible to this disease? Who is at risk?
Naturally, these are people with kidney diseases - acquired or hereditary, for example, kidney anomalies, horseshoe kidney, etc. In healthy kidneys, stones never form. Urinary tract infections and urinary tract abnormalities contribute to increased crystallization of salts in the urine. After all, urine is a saline solution, but the salts are dissolved in it, and through healthy kidneys these salts come out along with the urine, and when there are some diseases, the crystals precipitate and grow into stones. It is still not clear why these crystals linger in the kidneys, because nothing prevents them from leaving while they are still small. There may be a small stone in one kidney and a large one in the other. So the process of stone formation itself has not yet been sufficiently studied.
Does a person’s age affect the formation of stones?
Stones can form even in newborns. Moreover, they are large, and they have to be crushed immediately. This indicates that the child has a congenital disease of the genitourinary organs.
Who suffers more often from stones? Men or women?
Men. This is due to the fact that women have the hormone estrogen, which prevents crystals from sticking together into stones. I repeat, if the kidneys are healthy, stones will never form.
How does urolithiasis manifest itself?
Pain in the abdomen and lower back is an essential component of urolithiasis. There are people who are patient and do not pay attention to pain for a long time. As a result, doctors discover large stones. People don’t go to the doctor for a long time because a large stone behaves more or less calmly, sometimes giving a dull, aching pain. A small stone gives severe sharp pain in the form of renal colic. Well, the second main sign is blood in the urine. As a rule, there can be a lot of it, and the patient sees it “by eye,” which indicates that the stone is moving. The disease is diagnosed by ultrasound and based on the results of urine tests, the composition of the salts in the urine can already be used to predict the composition of the stone.
What kind of stones do Nizhny Novgorod residents have?
In our region, as in general and throughout the country, oxalates predominate (up to 75%). In second place are phosphate stones (up to 15%), then urate stones (2-7%) and cystine stones - up to 3%. They differ in composition.
How can you alleviate your condition during renal colic?
There is a good and safe medicine - Urolesan, consisting only of herbs. For patients with urolithiasis, it is always at hand. Taking this medicine will relieve the pain of renal colic, if the attack that happened is just that. This is the only thing the patient can do before the doctor arrives. The main thing is to consult a doctor immediately; prolonged presence of a kidney stone is fraught with purulent inflammation and loss of the organ.
That is, advice from the Internet - lie in a hot bath and take No-shpu - is this bad advice?
Undoubtedly. No hot bath or painkillers, because you yourself will not be able to determine the cause of the pain. What if you don’t have renal colic, but an attack of acute appendicitis? What if a woman has an ectopic pregnancy? In medical terminology, there is the concept of “acute abdomen” - this is a condition in acute appendicitis, acute cholecystitis, intestinal colic, ectopic pregnancy... In this condition, the clock counts for making a diagnosis before surgery. Pain in renal colic and in these dangerous conditions can easily be confused, so you should never engage in self-diagnosis or self-medication. Urolesan didn’t help, which means you don’t have renal colic. Let the doctor figure it out; renal colic, unlike the other above-mentioned conditions, can be observed for three days to make a diagnosis and make further decisions on treatment or surgery.
By the way, about operations. People who have not encountered the problem say that the stones are somehow “crushed.” Others say they are being operated on. Tell us what treatment methods are currently used.
Nowadays, abdominal operations are performed only when absolutely necessary. Surgical treatment has become more comfortable. Basically, minimally invasive endoscopic operations are used, when a stone is removed through a puncture in the lumbar region, or crushed by applying electrodes to it, again, through a puncture, or through the urinary tract. There is also a non-surgical method of crushing stones - lithotripsy, when a special device is aimed at the kidney area at the stone and, with the help of short pulses of energy, destroys it step by step until small particles remain from the stone, which themselves are excreted in the urine. The doctor chooses the methods himself. It happens that drug treatment is enough. And so, they split it up, observed it for two or three days, and went home. There are practically no complications when crushing stones.
If the stone is removed, can you continue to live in peace?
Unfortunately, no, with urolithiasis the likelihood of relapse is extremely high. No matter how effectively the operation is performed, it will not be possible to do without complex and individually selected drug therapy. Patients should be observed after surgery by a urologist for several years.
What should you drink and eat to avoid any stones?
A healthy person needs to drink 2-2.5 liters of fluid per day, preferably plain water. I'll explain why. Plain water does not cause digestion in the stomach. Like a shower, it passes through the entire body, internal organs, including the kidneys, washes them and leaves. If we drink other liquids - juice, compote, tea, coffee - the stomach begins to work, gastric juice, hydrochloric acid, enzymes, etc. are released. If you have been diagnosed with urolithiasis, drink 3-3.5 liters of water per day. As for taking vitamins, for example, calcium, everything should be in moderation. The diet should be rich in fiber. It is advisable to consume a lot of plant foods. Fiber, or dietary fiber, is useful in that it absorbs a lot of water and swells, stretching the stomach and preventing overeating, because. the stomach considers itself more “full”, this is a plus. The second advantage is that then this swollen lump of food, rich in fiber, cleanses the digestive tract without leaving solid mineral substances on the walls - the same ones that, being absorbed into the blood, then enter the kidneys and form crystals. Meat and fish should only be limited if you have uric acid stones. For other types of stones, these foods can be eaten.
Returning to the issue of water. Our region has very hard water. Does this affect the health of Nizhny Novgorod residents?
The Volga region is indeed an unfavorable region for urolithiasis due to increased water hardness. Water must be boiled before use. But, most importantly, take care of your own health. I repeat, if your kidneys are healthy, there is nothing to be afraid of.
In addition to drinking the right amount of water and proper nutrition, it is important to avoid prolonged stressful situations, stress provokes the formation of stones. Need more rest. Physical activity is important. And then you will not face urolithiasis.
Interviewed by Danila Rezak.
What foods to look for fiber in?
These are wheat bran, bread (rye flour, Borodino, whole grain flour), porridge (buckwheat, pearl barley, oatmeal, wheat), nuts (almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts and walnuts), mushrooms, legumes (green beans, peas, lentils ). Vegetables: cabbage (Brussels sprouts, cabbage), carrots, beets, zucchini, pumpkin, tomatoes. There is also a lot of fiber in greens - parsley, dill, lettuce, green onions. And also in fruits, dried fruits and berries - such as black currants, dried apricots, dried apples, raisins, prunes, pears, oranges, bananas, apricots, raspberries, strawberries and others.
The champions in fiber content are: wheat bran, dried apricots, black currants, dried apples and raisins.
Important: The operation for remote crushing of stones (extracorporeal lithotripsy) is carried out free of charge within the framework of the “Program of state guarantees of free provision of medical care to the population of the Nizhny Novgorod region for 2021”. In particular, remote lithotripsy according to compulsory medical insurance is performed at the State Budgetary Healthcare Institution "City Clinical Hospital 13 of Nizhny Novgorod". You can find out where else such operations are carried out under compulsory medical insurance by contacting the Territorial Health Insurance Fund of the Nizhny Novgorod Region.

Do stones heal? — lithotherapy
Stones are selected according to several criteria. Among them are the task it must meet, personal preferences, and whether the stone matches the character and date of birth.
The first reliable information about the use of precious stones in treatment dates back to the Middle Ages. The initial mentions in Europe are contained in the sixteenth volume of the encyclopedia “Etymology, or Beginnings” (633), dedicated to stones and metals, and written by the holy bishop Isidore of Seville.
Of particular importance is Mabrod of Rennes's poem "Lapidarium", or "Poem on Gems or Precious Stones" (1080). According to the semantics of that time, gems were called precious stones. This work, consisting of 60 chapters, provided detailed characteristics of a specific precious mineral, including types, mining characteristics, distribution areas and healing qualities.
The philosopher considered stones a much more effective medicine than plants:
“Everyone knows that stones help the art of doctors
To expel harmful diseases from human bodies.
All blessings to those who should wear them,
Let no one be surprised - doubt is inappropriate here,
That there is magical power hidden in precious stones:
It’s present in herbs, but in stones it’s only more powerful.”
Along with the use of the stones themselves, lithotherapy historically refers to ritual magic, the connections of various aspects of precious stones with astrological phenomena, and in the practice of Kabbalah, the aspect of light is added to the work with stones.

Prevention
The main task of the patient is to reconsider his attitude towards oral hygiene, since it is due to insufficient or improper brushing of teeth that stones form on their surface. It is very important to brush your teeth twice a day, morning and evening. But it is equally important to do it correctly, thoroughly cleaning all surfaces of the teeth, including hard-to-reach ones, from plaque. This is exactly what a hygienist can teach you, as well as select the toothpaste you need and recommend a brush of the required hardness.
Dentists recommend not saving on high-quality toothpastes and brushes, since the effectiveness of hygiene procedures depends on them. Using an electric brush with various attachments allows you to more thoroughly clean the surface of your teeth from plaque. Dentists also recommend professional teeth cleaning at least twice a year, during which the doctor will remove all dental deposits that can turn into stone over time. It is also necessary to consume solid food, which helps to cleanse teeth of plaque.
Astromineralogy
The astromineralogical method is based on the synthesis of the contact method of therapy and the astrological affiliation of the stone to any sign of the Zodiac. This is one of the oldest methods of lithotherapy, based on the mutual energy exchange between stone and person during physical contact. Depending on what zodiac sign the person in need of treatment belongs to, an amulet or talisman, a mineral and a metal in which it will be placed are chosen.
